Although this product is heavy, it is poorly designed, engineered, and manufactured. The hinge rod is bent to insert through hinge holes that are not drilled properly. The spring for the door is poor quality given the price of this item and the machining of holes for screws is awful. I would not recommend this product to anyone.

The product itself is nice, and a simple design. The bolts that hold it come in two sizes for door thickness and they go in from the back (inside surface). You need to ensure that the holes you drill are straight! For me, the casted holes for the bolts on the back of the front plate protrudes so far that the hardware couldn't lie flush on the door surface. I had to bore out a larger diameter more than a 1/4" deep for the protrusion, it's tricky because it's right at the edge of the cutout. None of this is explained by the download only instructions, no pictures or drawings. The back flap is hefty, and can be swung all the way up out of the way, which I don't care for. Be careful not to mount the brackets to close together or the flap will bind. I feel the flap isn't tall enough as I can see the cutout when I look down at it. In the winter there will be a draft.
